UC Boulder Notification

[Supernovasky]

I notice someone got a UC Boulder notification. This is one of the universities I am very much wanting to study at, both for location and for the focus of some of their professors.

Does someone want to claim the Boulder notification and tell us about it?

I saw this too....I think the person emailed the department first and they responded. I doubt they just contacted this person out of the blue.

Last year, the open house invites went out on Feb 14th-15th. I would very much love to go here, not just for the university, but for the location. Ayone else apply here?

I did but my chances of getting in are very slim. I have a super strong fit and a good relationship with one of the professors there. The interests we share aren't really represented in the department but he has expressed a desire for me to work with him too. In fact, I didn't really find anyone else that would be a good second adviser which felt inherently prioblematic. Nonetheless, I still applied because working with him would do me well. Plus, he's a cool dude and it's a cool, though yuppified, city.

I found one professor there that said, "She would be looking forward to reading my application."

i'll claim the notifcation. i actually just posted in the UC Boulder main thread.

to explain:

I actually visited the school back in september, not on an invite, but was there and was applying and asked to come by. i asked dr. steen, the dga, to keep me up when any info was coming out. she kept her word and just told me that the visit day had been scheduled for march 2nd. i have not heard anything since, and it doens't look like anyone else has either.
